Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 322.75/day in the week to Jul 15 → 6.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Cant put my finger on it but there is something about the first metal gear solid that no other metal gear has -even though the games that follow are better technically- that makes it worth playing over them.
''Siz Türkler oyun oynamayı bilmiyorsunuz. Siz hep LOL ve CS oynuyorsunuz biraz kaliteli oyun oynayın. Gidin metal gear oynayın çok güzel yaptım. Gidin biraz Japon oyunu oynayın da kültürlenin siz anca, milli değerlerinizi sömüren oyunlar yapıyorsunuz. Ben oyunlarıma ROBOTLAR koyuyorum'' -Japon oyun yapımcısı Kojima

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 31: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

absolute masterpiece for its time and even now it is a banger of a game even when compared to more recent installments of the series I love you so much Kojima .
A classic and one my all time favourite games.
Metal Gear Solid est un très bon jeu avec d'excellentes idées de gameplay et une histoire passionnante, à l'image de toute la saga Metal Gear. Ce chef d'oeuvre sorti en 1998 peut faire peur au premier contact par son gameplay rigide mais une fois passé les premières heures et le gameplay apprivoisé, ce n'est que du plaisir. Cependant jouer à ce jeu 28 ans après sa sortie peut être compliqué sur nos supports modernes car le jeu favorisait l'implication du jeu dans le monde réelle. Aujourd'hui nous n'avons plus la jaquette originale du jeu qui donnait des indices pour avancer dans l'histoire lorsque l'on joue sur Steam, nous n'avons plus les cartes mémoires de la PS1, ni même le bouche à oreille dans des magasins spécialisés ou dans la cour de récréation.MGS1 est un jeu qui est très compliqué à faire sans guide à côté, ce qui réduit beaucoup l'expérience voulue par Kojima et son équipe. Toutefois, il subsiste des parties du jeu impliquant toujours autant le joueur [spoiler] (comme la scène de torture ou le combat contre Psycho Mantis bien que la dimension surnaturelle de ce dernier soit réduite) [/spoiler]. Pour votre culture vidéoludique, ce jeu est impératif à faire car il est de près ou de loin le père de la plupart des jeux sortis les 28 dernières années en ayant influencé toute l'industrie par son gameplay innovant et son histoire. Concernant les chasseurs de trophées, ce jeu est plutôt simple et court à 100% donc amusez vous bien !
El mejor juego de todos los tiempos
Not as good as the 2000 PC port (slower load times, can't instantly skip codecs for gameplay only playthroughs, forces you to play the boring training variants of the VR missions instead of all the actually fun time attack ones being unlocked from the start), but still absolute FIRE no matter the version.
Merci Hideo Kojima d'avoir crée ce chef d'oeuvre
ATOW, 5th Aug 2026, you can cheat the second hardest achievement in this game just by playing through the French version of the game normally and then starting a new game on that completed save file and I find that very funny. I do recommend.
A brilliant masterpiece!
